Sgt. Pepper's Pizza at Eklectic PieDaily

Eklectic Pie located in Mesa celebrated its grand opening to the public last week. We recommend stopping by to sample the pizzeria's Sgt. Pepper pie made with mozzarella, bell peppers, red onion, grilled chicken, spicy jalapeno cilantro lime cream sauce, and grated Parmesan cheese. Hot, tangy, with the perfect amount of kick, the Sgt. Pepper is great example of the pizzas coming out of Eklectic Pie. Eklectic Pie is open daily from 10:30 to close. Additional information, including the full menu, can be found on the restaurant's website.
